Brent,

Please educate the newcomers to this list about the most unfortunate accid=
ent at your place years ago with a pilot who did not "nail" his landing.

John asks:
<< What do you guys use as far as personal minimums in runway length when=
 landing your IV=E2=80=99s?>>>

Home base for me (6ID1) is 2,200' x 40, 2,720 MSL. Due to terrain, landing=
 is to the east and slightly uphill. Usually there is a 3-5 Kt tail wind.=
 Landings can be accomplished in 1,400 to 1,800 feet under these condition=
s BUT it requires a LOT of practice. For me it took 500 hours in type and=
 over 1,000 landings before I could consistently nail my intended landing=
 spot at the needed speed (90 Kts).=C2=A0 Also, forget about greasers, the=
se are firm "positive contact" landings that I warn my passengers about.=
 

My first landing in a IV-P was on a 6,000' x 100' field and I needed 5,500=
' of it. 

There are several Lancairs including at least 2 IVs at KPAO which is 2400=
 feet and at sea level.

As a rule, never land on anything shorter than you have already demonstrat=
ed CONSISTENTLY on a longer field. 

You can land on short fields the same way you get to Carnegie Hall........=
. Practice, Practice, Practice.

Regards
Brent Regan
